This is How You Make a Lunch Box Go From Okay to Amazing!
Hey there Mama! I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Everyone thinks the lunch box I pack every day for my child is amazing but they can't quite figure out how I make it so cute and fun.
Here's one of the secrets in my toolbox: accessorize! I stock up on really cute lunch box accessories and all of a sudden my somewhat ordinary lunchboxes look super fun and enticing!

Let me show you some examples:
Carrots go from ordinary to extraordinary with fun food picks.
Olives can look dark and uninviting to a child until you turn them into characters from outer space!
From plain tomatoes to a friendly zoo gathering!
"Ugh, not broccoli" becomes "he he he look at my broccoli friends!"
Here is the gear
My little box of fun food picks for lunchbox packing.
You can find all of these fun food picks on Amazon. It's amazing how a simple food pick can really change the look and perception of various foods.
Here is a list of my favorite food picks that I use in the lunchboxes for my kids:
set of 40 cute animal food picks
set of 8 outer space food picks
set of 8 Halloween themed food picks
alphabet set (26 letters) food picks
set of 50 simple semi-clear colorful food picks
set of 8 fruit friends food picks
set of 72 ninja swords for those obsessed with ninja-stuff (like my 5yo!)
set of 10 funny eye food picks
I also love to use silicone muffin cups and silicone "pods" from PlanetBox to either separate foods or fill up some space. Some kids eat less at lunch than others and these accessories can take up a little bit more space in a large lunchbox to make it seem full, but not as overwhelming.
Kids also love when food is separated!
set of 36 silicon muffin cups in 3 shapes
set of 4 PlanetBox silicone pods
(for their Rover lunchbox but also works in LunchBots and Bentgo Kids lunchboxes!)
How fun accessories can change a lunch box (from okay to amazing!)
You can even dress up a snack or appetizer plate of veggies and fruit with these fun picks!
That's not all folks

You can also see more of my favorite accessories I love and use daily, as well as lunchboxes and other gear, here in My Lunchboxes Shop.
Make them laugh!
I recently created a series of lunch box jokes and notes and my kids are LOVING them! Each day my 8-year-old asks if I remembered to put one in his lunch. He and his friends are all benefitting from these little cards. Laughing is healthy too!
You can check out this package of 180 Lunchbox Notes & Jokes (one for every day of the school year) here.
From okay to amazing!
Now that you know my little secret you too can make lunchboxes that go from okay to amazing simply by adding in a few accessories! Go to Amazon and shop to your heart's content - it's all for the kids, right?
By the way, did I mention that each one of these lunchboxes pictured here took only 5 minutes or less to make? I'm a realist! We moms don't have time to be cutting all those cute shapes and stuff for a lunch box! We are busy! That's why I love the lunch box accessories. Super easy and super quick to use.
Happy Lunch Box Packing!

What it's like to work with Leah
Kim Morrow
I am so much more conscious of what I am putting into my body and I actually feel really empowered and good about myself by saying no to the foods that are not good for me. At Dinner the other night, my husband and kids kept asking me to try one french fry or one bite of their dessert, and I just smiled and said 'no thank you'.
Marisa Lonic
With 20+ post partum pounds, I was looking for a program to help me. I was blown away working with Leah. I lost 9 pounds, felt less tired and formed healthy habits that are now j7st part of my new normal.
Jonelle Fernandes
My whole adult life I have struggled with eating healthy, never really feeling satisfied and giving in to very unhealthy choices. Leah is a phenomenal wealth of knowledge and support when it comes to nutrition. It is because of her programs that I am FINALLY eating healthy on a regular basis! I feel the best I’ve ever felt, I have more energy, better sleep, less inflammation, better skin, and a better mood! Not to mention, I lost 11 pounds and the weight is continuing to come off!
